Atherton LR receive Club of the Month Award
Mon 7th October 2024 | League Awards | By Martin Fallon
We were delighted to catch up recently with Atherton LR, winners of the First Division North Club of the Month award for July/August 2024.
LR Manager Dave Jones is pictured receiving the award from League Fixture Co-Ordinator Jeff Voller who carried out the presentation on behalf of the League Committee.
Atherton LR won three and drew one of their opening four games, with victories at Skem and Ashton Athletic and at home to Garstang, plus a goalless draw at Droylsden. They then lost away at Euxton Villa before going nap for the rest of the month, winning their last six games and scoring 15 goals in the process.
They won by the odd goal in nine at home to AFC Blackpool before a fine 2-1 win at Darwen and a 4-2 win at home to Route One Rovers. Their final three games all came with clean sheets, with wins at home to Thornton Cleveleys and Steeton and away at Bacup Borough.
This was enough to give them the award ahead of Droylsden and Holker Old Boys, whilst Nelson won nine out of eleven games, only dropping points to the aforementioned two teams.
Congrations to everyone at the club!
